Virat Kohli, who failed to open his account in Perth and Adelaide, will try not to disappoint the fans in Sydney. Tickets for Saturday’s match between India and Australia are already sold out. This is the first time in his career that Kohli has been dismissed for a duck in two consecutive matches. In his nearly two-decade career, Virat Kohli has repeatedly shown fans that whenever he has slipped, he has made a strong comeback. While Virat has had an average performance in Sydney so far, October 25th will be a significant occasion for him.
Which record Virat Kohli can make
Virat Kohli, listed among the best batsmen in modern-day cricket, is already the highest run-scorer in successful ODI chases. He has amassed 5,998 runs in 101 innings across 107 matches at an average of 88.20 and a strike rate of 96.55. Kohli has remained unbeaten 33 times during this period. He has scored 24 centuries and 26 half-centuries in successful ODI chases. If Kohli scores 2 runs in a successful chase in Sydney, he will become the first batsman to score 6,000 runs in a successful ODI chase.
List of the specific record
Sachin Tendulkar is second on the list of batsmen with the most runs while successfully chasing a target in ODIs. He has scored 5490 runs in 124 innings of 127 matches at a strike rate of 90.08 and an average of 55.45. Rohit Sharma is third on this list. Rohit has 4580 runs in 103 innings at an average of 62.73. Ricky Ponting is fourth on the list with 4186 runs, and Jacques Kallis is fifth with 3950 runs.
Virat has played seven ODIs in Sydney so far. He has scored 146 runs at an average of 24.3 and a strike rate of 83.0. He has only managed one half-century in Sydney, with his highest score being 89. Statistics indicate that Virat’s record in Sydney is poor, and this has fans’ hearts racing.
